Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Axonite receives impulses from the adjacent neuron.
Detailed explanation-2: -Neurotransmitters bind to the membrane of the dendrite. The binding allows the nerve impulse to travel through the receiving neuron.
Detailed explanation-3: -Dendrites extend out from the cell body and receive messages from other nerve cells. An axon is a long single fiber that transmits messages from the cell body to the dendrites of other neurons or to other body tissues, such as muscles. A protective covering called the myelin sheath, covers most neurons.
